The removal of the Fort Edward dam in 1973 released contaminated sediment into this river. Once known as the Mauritius, this river possesses a "Wind Gate" formed by Storm King Mountain and Breakneck Ridge, and the Appalachian Trail crosses it on the Bear Mountain Bridge. Its official source is located on Mount Marcy at Lake Tear-of-the-Clouds while the Mohawk is a major tributary. This river widens at Tappan Zee where it is flanked by the Palisades. Crossed by the Holland Tunnel, for 10 points, identify this river that flows through Albany and New York City.
